Don't be complacent.
Don't get y.
Don't let up.
BELIEVE.
No ing way we lose to the Cavs.
Spurs won't be complacent, rusty, but not complacent.
Eh, I'm glad Lebron made it to his first finals.
It'll be a great series, but the Cleveland fans have to fear the Spurs too!
The Spurs are whole lot better than the Pistons team, and we got a lot on our side, and odds. Our players are looking to deliver.
Should be a great match in our favor.
Nope. That series the way it went was bound to happen. Mavs choking + D-Wade + Refs = The Obvious. Even if the mavs wasn't a choking team they wouldn't of won that series anyway.
I'm telling you guys Stern is an evil genuise and if the cavs win this series it won't be an upset because we knew it was going to go that route given Stern's evil marketing force.
There are things about this series that scare the absolute crap out of me.
One of those things is the smugness of some Spurs fans and the karmic hit that some are due for their ridiculing of the Mavericks' failures last June. I don't know why, but I could somehow see something similar happening to the Spurs if they're anything but great over their last 4-7 games of this season.
There's plenty there to tell me that the Spurs can win this series. Plenty to tell me that the Spurs should win this series. But there's also a nagging thing in my mind that tells me that this might be the time the Spurs don't get it done. Shoog's recitation is probably the exact thing that gives me pause and makes me think that this one is going to be a real booger.
In life, anything can happen. We are an excellent team playing at our absolute peak, against a rookie team still learning certain basic aspects of this level of play. I like our odds.
No, Karma is what brought the Mavs down. We've got nothing but good Karma, we've got guys who believe in each other, and we've got a coach that has the players buying into the system. Oh yeah, and we've got Tim Duncan. We're not losing this series.
After what Robert Horry and Bruce Bowen did in the suns series you think the spurs all of a sudden have good Karma? It's going to catch up to them. What goes around...comes back around. The spurs are ed. Karma + LeBron + refs....aint know way the spurs getting past all of that.
I don't know about the karmic hit for dissing on mavs fans, they kind of deserved it for being es.
Whott has me thinking.
The Mavs players weren't mature though. You could see it with Dirk and Jason Terry last year.
I trust in Tim, Manu and all our guys. Popovich shouldn't be underestimated.
I don't care how carried away some Spurs fans can get. We just have to remember that Spurs are the real deal. They've proven it, unlike the Mavericks of last year.
I'm looking at 4-1, just like the Jazz series.
In SA 2-0
In Cleveland (what wretched town), 1-1 (3-1)
In SA 1, Spurs 4-1, champs.
Im just glad the Lebron got his superman game done now so everybody (especially coach) can see what and how to go about defending. Not necessarily about stopping James from scoring, but situational coaching. How to adjust your players in the situation. Let Lebron score early on, then double him later and hope his other players are cold from not shooting all game. Flip didn't have a clue on what to do. You also have to realize that that was not the same Detroit team from a couple of years ago. Would we be all excited and nervous if they had just beaten say the Wizards or something in the ECF? I think that Pop will adjust accordingly.
I think they might steal 1 of the first two at home. But that being said, I have no worries playing in Cleveland. My Ravens steadily beat the Browns regularly over there.
Appropriate fear.Scared?
Scared?
I was wondering were you were. You missed roll call son!!
Well, not entirely, given that the Finals format is 2-3-2, not 2-2-1-1-1. If we win in 5, it means 2 on their homecourt. That's not to say it can't happen, just that it would have to for your scenario.
Edit - Shoog beat me to it.
Yeah, that's great and all, but Game 5's in Cleveland.
Don't screw around, just get the job done.
I agree completely.
That Laker upset against Detroit was so sweet, I remember it well.
The Cavs got under Pistons' skin. Pistons never looked alive, really. That could never happen to the Spurs. No way.
